Hello, Because of security reasons I would like to run some RDMA tests in a virtual machine with the rdma+AF8-rxe driver attached to the loopback (+ACI-lo+ACI) interface and with no other network interfaces configured. Although it is possible to associate the rdma+AF8-rxe network interface I have not yet found a way to let the RDMA/CM set up a connection from address ::1 to ::1. rdma+AF8-bind+AF8-addr() fails for address ::1 because cma+AF8-check+AF8-linklocal() does not consider it as a link-local address. rdma+AF8-resolve+AF8-route() fails because it expects that bound+AF8-dev+AF8-if +ACEAPQ 0 before that function is called. Modifying rdma+AF8-bind+AF8-addr() and rdma+AF8-resolve+AF8-route() such that these recognize the address ::1 causes the RDMA/CM at the listener side to reject the incoming connection, probably because ::1 does not match the GID of the port of the rdma+AF8-rxe instance attached to +ACI-lo+ACI (fe80:0000:0000:0000:0200:00ff:fe00:0000). Using the +ACI-lo+ACI GID does not work because it is not in the IPv6 routing table. Has anyone else already looked into this? Thanks, Bart.
